The two principal streets of this city, Bond and Commercial, are 'a disgrace x to Astoria, and a stigma on the ability of every office holder whose position brings him In touch directly or Indirectly with the maintenance of our thoroughfares. To begin -wllih, and laying aalde for the moment ail question of the structural condttion of our highways, there lhas never ibeen the slightest tftmpT at a systematic course of cleaning ard sweep ing. Filthy and noisome substances grad ually collect and are allowed to lie end rot into powder at every corner. The wind at timet Wows tfoi3 sickly and dls- . case-breeding dust Into the face of every pedestrian, and throws It over goods displayed, in front of grocery, cloth ii ur.d dry goods stores, gradually ruin ing materials exposed for sale and making u further channel for lt distribution among people who purchaso the ntceesa- rie of life and "wearing apparel. That Astoria Is one of the healthiest spots on the continent Is no fault of the city authorities, and were It mot for our prox imity to ,the ocean and various other nat ural reasons such Impotent carelessness wouCd long ago have led to most serious results. Once In a great while a solitary Individual with a wooden shovel, at the earnest oClcUatlon of a heavy taxpayer, appears on the streets and tolls wearily for a couple of hours In a very hollow attempt at cleaning up. In the extremely labored dissertations on threabars sub jects with which the council chamber rings very 'Wednesday night, the ques tion of street cleaning holds no place. Whether this Indifference Is the result of a firm faith In the disposition of Prov idence to keep epidemics away from As toria without the assistance of the rep resentatives of the people, or whether it la because of an Inherent dread of startling the publio with anything In the nature of a reform (measure In any direc tion, we do not know. But the subject is systematically ignored. The Astorlan has before dealt at length with the question of man-traps, "aprons, and craiy patchwork thoroughfares gen erally, but the council has alt once come to the 'front with an attempt to throw the responsibility for this unique collection or rotten lumber onto the city charter. The charter, by the way, according to the defence made by the councilmen. Is the scapegoat for every sin In the alder manic calendar, but as everybody knows that the charter, as broken down a col lection of rubbish as the streets them selves, was the master piece of the men who try to shield their official records behind Its lame and idiotic provisions, such an argument, to put It mildly, does not strike us as being very forcible. In SoKt, the comic opera way In which the document was drawn up would be amusing If It did not touch the city's vltsJl interests. A short seance in a back office among a committee appointed to deal iwlth the matter of by-laws and con sU't'Utlonal amendments, a hurried ex change of mutual prlvato wishes "You put to this provision about the grade of streets, and I'll support that sewerage scheme of yours," a. mutual understand ing sealed twith smiles, winks and nods between Brown and Jones and Robinson, and the thing caMed by courtesy a "char ter" an instrument dealing with the civic happiness and welfare of tan thousand people, Is born Into e world. .The crea ture of a ew private Interests, used as a shield for every bCockheaded piece of Im becility that cannot otherwise be plausi bly explained away, Its life is Indeed a hard one. When it has reached its secona birthday It Is ruthlesedy murdered, cre ated once more, and lives for another two years a thing of contumely and a butt for the Just abuse that should faU on Its creators. Poor old ohnrterl With the advent of th prosperity for which (Astoria has long waited and th Incoming of new Wood, common sens Ideas, ami businesslike methods, th time Is happily fast approaching when the pJMlc wlH b able to compos epitaphs on rh official caretrs of thes blunderers. King Ooncomly, flirty and grlisled as he was, and gutlty atso of a few little man nerisms hardly In accord with our present clvlUsitiotv, was still In many respects h superior of some of our white lawgiv er. He built good roads, his people lived ppy. and h never went Into a back office and composed charters. Like Astoria San Francisco Is Just now ufferln from an Insufficient supply sf iwater, but, unlike Astoria, unfortunately, there Is no prospect that tiie evil In th latter city can b remedied In the near future the difficulty there being in th jweeeure rather fun U auiount of wa work are completed, we shall be as well off, both In quantity and quality of water fur nished the city as any other place of the same size In the whole country. It is not (pleasant, however, to think of the destruction that would ensue In some parts of the city under conditions fa vorable to the rapid spread of a con flagration. In San Francisco It is pro posed ito use the water of the harbor for extinguishing fires and watering streets. So far as the purpose of sprinkling is concerned, they may make a success of It, but before placing much, reliance on this method of obtaining water to put out fires, the San Francisco authorities wouJd do well to profit by Astoria's re- cent experience. This is what "Fire and Water" has lately (had to say on the subject: The recent disastrous fire In- Ran -TJVtin- cieco iwhen 1,0U0,000 worth of nronartv was destroyed, shows the lack Of a nroner system, of fire protection. The water pressure was altogether too low. With a view to remedying this evil, which U recognized by the authorities, the Olym pic Salt Water Company of San Fran cisco nasi tor some months past been laying its mains, and intends to bid for the patronage of the city. The city pro poses to oner one city free of cost all une sau water needed for BDiinkllna- mir- poses in the section where their mains are laid and their hydrants set. I'lg-nt-ing fire with salt water la not now an ex periment. It has been proved beyond question that salt water is best adapted for Are purposes, and there are several reasons why this Is so. First, the density of the water does not allow it to evap orate o readily, thus allowing it a longer period to get in its destroying power. Again, salt water weigh ts sixty-four pounds to the cubic foot, as against sixty-two pounds for fresh water. The dif ference, of course is found in the salt. It is claimed that one service of salt water is equal to three of fresh. Returns from seventeen English cities where salt water is used for sprinkling purposes mow that the streets have gradually be come macadamized. The mortality has aflso decreased from twenty to thirty per cent. The Olympic Company has a rcser- voir with an elevation of 320 feet above the city. Tle reservoir Is cn Point Lo- bos avenue, near Josephine street, and has a capacity of 4,D00,000 gallons. The interest-bearing debt of the United States at the close of President Harri son's term of office was 1585,037,000. Ac cording to the treasury statement Just ssuea mo amount or this debt is now $717,860,000. It thus appears that under the present administration the Interest bearing debt of the government has in creased $162,323,000. If this rate of in crease should be kept up during the re maining time of Mr. Cleveland's term, and there is reason to apprehend that it will be, the interest-bearing public debt at the end of his term will have reached larger amount than it was at the be ginning of the administration of Presi dent Harrson, when the total was $829,- 3,990, the reduction of the debt during that administration having been $214,816,- 000. The unfortunate financial record of this administration is due, as everybody is aware, to 'the Democratic tariff policy, under which the receipts of the treasury have fallen steadily behind expenditures, although importations of foreign mer chandise have been greatly stimulated. Yet It is understood, and on all hands xpected, that the administration will re fuse to approve any changes in the tariff looking to the production of more reve nue, preferring to take the chances of a further increaso of the public debt rather than aMow any duties to be Increased or any transfer from the free to the dutia ble list to be made. The annual cost of this policy to the people of the United States In Interest charges alone is more than $1,000,000 a year, and this is an Insig nificant part of what they have to pay for It. The people are not likely to be unmindful of such facts next year. A Boston paper estimates that the dele gates to the Christian Endeavor conven tion spent at least $1,000,000 for car fare and other Incidental expenses In chat city, and the pertinent question arises whj'.her the convention did more good than a contribution of a million dollars to the missionary and church extension fund would have done. Tills ought to be a good text for some of our practical and earnest-'purposo ministers. STATU NEWS. Intoresting Items Culled fivwn Oregon's L?uJ) ng Newspapers.

The lumbering indus try Is going to pour out untold millions of wealth Into the lap of the Webfoot state. It will leave from $1 to fc of money for every thousand feet of itlnvber, as fast as fm.led u-n-d worked up, in this atulte, .to be distributed for labor in- the camps, in the mills, factories, and for the products of farms, dairies, orchards, gardens, etc Tills great industry is now reviving and it 'W-ll UienceToptih grow with une naturua development of the state and the coast and the Increase of transportation fa cilities to the Krtt and to foreign coun trhs.

Wirt'tibvr tn rtffUrVt to tthe big inland ex cursion U the Cascade Locks, -which Is to take place Saturday, August 17, the general passenger agent of the O. R. and N. says: "I think all the newspapers In Eastrn Oregon ought to furnish the ad vertising without expense, as this is one of the problems in which they have been very imucUi uvteresxeo in na pasi anu on which they haiv published many articles In support of tth same. lit has been gen erally understood that thla company was oppos.d to an open nvar. u me con trary the present management are averse to doing umyt'hins; to prejudice the minds of -th people on this qutsttion; in fact, iwe would sooner run an excursion in the Interests of an open river that anything.

The forest fires ill! the air iwlth suf foca'tlng smoke during the dry season on this coast, says an up river exchange, The n-euft legislature ought to pass en act forbidding the lighting of bush fires dur ing the months of July, August and Sep iteuriber, with severe penalties for its vio lation. There are three good reasons for such a law. First, these fires at such dry time do immnse damage to personal property. Second, they destroy millions of fee)t of timber belonging to the govern ment, iritimatety Injuring the state by destroying one of te great resources of weail t'h, and itihvrd, ithey surcharge the at mosphere with smoke and ithereby injure the heattn Of (the people.
